Escapism Sydney '09

[Hey Joe]

I say there must be bowling. It has been deemed so.

I say there must be bowling. It has been deemed so.

That could get interesting.. especially in all the ridiculous outfits.

 

[orifice]

Okay, I'm done with this. I hate you labyrinth, you and all your merriment, I just can't take it anymore. What ever happened to Escapecon? Why must the Aussies be the only one's to have fun? Is there anyone who can organize a Midwestern US version of this?

Or a UK version!
Although please,no larping. (I do battle re-enactment, I use real weapons, not latex!)

The closest Bowling Alley that I can find to the laser tagging is at Blacktown.

 

[Labyrinth]

My biggest concern now is cost.

 

[orifice]

Shame really, but when the flight alone to either places is just under a grand, I think i shall have to give it a miss. Would be nice to have one in the UK for us Brits. Anyone interested in that?

More importantly, how many Brits exist on these forums?

I'm british! and yeah there's a whole bunch of brits on here. Start the thread and see who answers!

 

[Labyrinth]

Cahlee (Thanks muchly.) has been digging up some information for the following:

1 game of ten-pin + 2 games of Lasertag.

This comes to $37 per person (roughly) and that's not including transport and food. Thoughts?

Shall do. I have to pop off for a few hours, but when I get back I will post something up.

I basically have nothing to say about this since I live at least 2 oceans and a continent away from this event but, and there's always a but--

Don't be scared of how Lab talks, shows or acts, it's all a show.
Past her rough, outer shell she's the sweetest, cuddliest thing on Earth. All she needs is a tummy rub once in a while. :3

I do have quite a purr it's tr-..

I see a clever plan there, Dick. Oh ho ho, how crafty you think you are. I'll be wearing extra spikes now. No hugs for you.

This Labyrinth Red Star award is dedicated to Cahlee for Awesome, First Class.

Why, Thankyou! -Takes a bow- I'd like to dedicate this to my family and friends and of course Jebus!

You had me at hello..

I mean day long LARP.

its like all my sick wet dreams come true at once.

 

[Cahlee]

Sweet.

Ok, here's the deal. To get there we'd have to catch a train from Central to Strathfield, Strathfield to Clyde and then from Clyde to Rosehill.... It seems a tad time consuming.. So.. I shall leave it up to you, my fellow Escapists!

Something tells me the bus can make it simpler. Whats the address, I'll try trip-planner

Unit 3, 175 James Ruse Drive
(Cnr of Grand Ave North),
Rosehill, 2142.

I am going to be driving there, so for anyone who cant spare the money for the travel, I'll be happy to drive them there.. Depending on where we meet up.

 

[Mariena]

If I could seriously afford to spend 1500 euros to visit Australia, I'd be all yours. Until then, I'll just have to wait till the Australian continent moves to The Netherlands. That's a meeting I could attend

This says if we just use Granville station, we can be there in half an hour. Sounds alright to me.

Just so you know, if everyone can afford it, we're thinking of going to Blacktown AMF bowling alley first. Excluding travel and foodz it is approximately $37 per person, But I'm speaking to the manager at AMF tomorrow to try to get a discount, so we'll see.

Well, that won't happen for at least 10 million years.
So unless scientists come up with a formula for immortality, I think you should find another way to reach your goal.

Actually I just had an idea. I'll kayak my way to Aussie land! All I need is a paddle, my mp3 and some Pringles.

water wouldn't be bad either. Or a bottle of bat-shark repellent
